    i'm not a fan of drilled or slotted rotors, they wear down pads quicker and have the possibility of cracking but other than that its a great price. Hawk makes good stuff.

      if you have a pre 98 then I'd say that's really not that great of a price, brake parts for them are much cheaper than the 98 and up due to the smaller size ( and I'm guessing that gm uses the same brake setup on many different models)

        I have those rotors and they work pretty well.

        However, the Autozone ones aren't bad either.

              Well i installed mine this weekend and they seem pretty good. Kind of hard to do a side by side since mine were "warped sp bad to begin with". but i'm happy with them so far.
